Patent EP-1195142-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ROGERS LAUREL L
IPC: A61B17/68
Filed: 2001-09-21
Abstract: A bioabsorbable rivet and pin fastener is formed as an elongated unit that may be
used for anchoring, or for attachment of a fixation plate. The rivet has a head
mechanically connected to two or more legs that extend generally distally from the head
and may flex outwardly from a central rivet axis. The pin is integral with the rivet and
oriented along the central axis by a connection such as a web or a plurality of braces,
forming an integral, aligned, one-piece assembly that may, for example, be molded as a
single piece. The connection breaks under force as the pin is driven into the rivet, so that
the pin contacts intemal surfaces of the legs and pushes the legs outward into frictional
engagement with the surrounding bone. The one-piece assembly may be formed in a
gated mold having a central pin with a relief passage that defines the braces between
upper and lower portions of the rivet. The braces so formed at the weld line readily part
from the mold, and are easily sheared when the pin is advanced during installation of the
rivet.

Abstract: A remote unit (11) receives some IP datagrams associated with an
established communication, eliminates from the header of each IP datagram
the information that remains inalterable throughout the duration of the
communication, and adds to the header of each IP datagram information
relative to the air interface employed by a radiocommunication system, in
order that the IP datagram so modified be transported over a radio channel to
a fixed unit (12). 
     The fixed unit (12) receives the modified IP datagrams, eliminates from
the header of each modified IP datagram the information relative to the air
interface, and adds to the header of each IP datagram the information that
remains inalterable throughout the duration of the set up communication, and
each IP datagram so obtained is sent to a transport network that transports it
to the second subscriber.

Abstract: A histogram of a digital image signal
representing a color image is formed, and a dynamic range
of the image signal is calculated in accordance with the
histogram. A rate of dynamic range compression
corresponding to a region of the image signal, in which the
signal value is comparatively large, a region of the image
signal, in which the signal value is comparatively small,
and/or the entire region of the image signal, is set in
accordance with the dynamic range and by taking a
predetermined reference level of the image signal as
reference. A dynamic range compressing process is carried
out on the image signal with the rate of dynamic range
compression having thus been set. Gradation processing is
carried out on an image signal, which has been obtained
from the dynamic range compressing process, and a processed
image signal is thereby obtained. A visible image is then
reproduced from the processed image signal.

Abstract: Adapting to load currents which differ by more
than 100 times between a scanning mode and a hold mode,
a frequency of pump operation is decided according to
the maximum value of the load currents, and circuit
elements of a power supply, for example, such as
capacitance of a capacitor for pump operation or a
smoothing capacitor, element configurations of
switching elements, or capacitance or resistance value
of a CR oscillator are set based on this frequency, so
that a load current detector lowers the frequency of
the pump operation under light load to reduce a self-loss
of power in the power supply. This realizes a
charge-pump power supply which is installed in a liquid
crystal display device of a terminal device of a
portable phone, with reduced power consumption under
light load and a longer standby time.
